JOB DESCRIPTION SUMMARY:

The Head Start Education Manager is a member of the Jefferson County Head Start leadership team and shares responsibility for program-wide strategy, integrated service delivery, compliance, child safety, organizational effectiveness, and continuous improvement. The position provides strategic leadership for birth-to-five education and translates program data, research, and regulatory requirements into clear priorities, aligned systems, and measurable results for children and families. A central responsibility of the role is developing Education Supervisors as skilled leaders who provide consistent, high-quality supervision, reflective coaching, performance feedback, and individualized support to teaching staff. The Manager strengthens the systems in which supervisors and classroom teams work, uses data to identify strengths and inequities, and coordinates with leaders across program areas so education decisions support the goals and needs of the program as a whole.

SCHEDULE:

This full-time, standard position can expect to work Monday-Friday. This position reports on-site to the Head Start Arvada location. Willingness to occasionally travel to assigned Head Start Sites (Lakewood or Wheat Ridge) is required.

COMPENSATION:

Hiring Range: $106,436.00 - $110,436.00 USD Annual Compensation will be determined based on education, experience, and skills.

BENEFITS:

Jefferson County offers a generous benefits package that supports your personal and professional life. Benefits include medical, dental, and vision insurance; paid time off and holidays, including a starting bank of 40 hours of PTO for new hires; retirement matching; wellness programs; tuition reimbursement and more. For more information, click here for our Total Rewards summary.

ESSENTIAL DUTIES:

Serve as an active member of the JCHS Leadership Team, contributing an education and child-development perspective while sharing accountability for the quality, compliance, sustainability, and effectiveness of the full Head Start program.
Translate the strategic plan, Head Start grant commitments, community assessment, school readiness goals, and program priorities into measurable education objectives, implementation plans, and clear expectations for staff.
Identify program-wide risks, trends, and opportunities; and lead or contribute to improvement efforts through implementation and evaluation.
Establish and maintain a cycle for collecting, validating, aggregating, disaggregating, analyzing, and using education data to guide decisions and measure progress toward program and readiness goals.
Analyze child assessment data at regular intervals, including appropriate subgroup analysis for children with disabilities and dual language learners, and integrate findings into other program data. Use findings to recommend and evaluate adjustments to teaching practices, curriculum implementation, professional development, coaching, staffing, resource allocation, program design, and services.
Provide strategic direction for high-quality, developmentally, culturally, and linguistically responsive education services for infants, toddlers, and preschool children, including children with disabilities and dual language learners.
Ensure curriculum, teaching practices, learning environments, child assessment, individualization, and family partnership practices align with the Head Start Early Learning Outcomes Framework, Colorado requirements, program school readiness goals, and applicable Head Start Program Performance Standards.
Directly supervise Education Supervisors through regular individual and team supervision, clear goals, timely feedback, and individualized professional development planning.
Build the leadership capacity of Education Supervisors to provide effective supervision and coaching, make sound and timely decisions, address performance concerns, support staff well-being, and maintain accountability for classroom quality and child safety.
Model and teach effective observation-and-feedback cycles, reflective supervision, difficult conversations, documentation, goal setting, and follow-through for Education Supervisors.
Establish common supervisory expectations, tools, routines, and measures of effectiveness, and evaluate the quality and impact of supervision through evidence such as feedback timeliness, coaching goal progress, staff development, classroom practices, and child outcomes.
Maintain an ongoing monitoring system that identifies compliance and quality concerns early, prompts immediate or timely correction, addresses root causes, and establishes safeguards against recurrence.
Partner with program leadership on child safety systems, incident response, required reporting, and corrective actions connected to classroom practice, staffing, supervision, or learning environments.
Prepare for and participate in federal, state, licensing, grant, and internal reviews; organize evidence, communicate findings, and lead assigned follow-up actions. Perform other duties as assigned in support of Jefferson County Head Start's mission, vision, values, goals, and operational needs.
